Past Challenges

1972 Chevrolet Nova SS (The Nova)

About

This is a "72" Nova SS I used to own about 25 years ago. It was a sleeper. Note the Monte Carlo front clip in back round, me, my brothers and friends were buying cars and stripping them almost every other weekend it seemed. Man, what I would give to get some of the cars back that we stripped.

Specs

400 c.u. 30 over, 12.5 to 1 compression, heads ported & match ported to intake, 3 angle valve job, 750 Holley, Crane blazer II cam, Muncie close ratio (M21) and 4:10 10 bolt posi. We had many a laugh on guys with big tires and loud pipes expense. but I never raced it with slicks like it needed.
